Bible-Related Bestsellers for June 2012

July 24, 2012 — 1 Comment

Also, note that there is no permanent link for each month’s “Best 20.”)

Here are the 5 Bible-related books – with 4 in the top 10 – that made the list in June 2012 (to keep the list simple, I have only given my translation of the title followed by the Japanese title, linked to a page with more info):

 

Do you know of any other Japanese bestseller lists that feature books in biblical studies and/or theology?
